. : f x\; eastern part. of the United States, which included, ALEX i gol - ‘KOLKIN. and was in Moscow for May Day); 1960 ,» dt was not oe

considered broad enough in. its composition but it was useful, ες

The unofficial trade {inion délegation from the ‘Midwestern part of the Unite was at Sochi on the Black Sea at the time of this/meeting. The Russians, were - having: some trouble with. SIDLENS and one SOBEL (phonetic). It was felt that they were nol really interested in the : , * Soviet Union, While LENS a a\ SOBEL were trying to ‘lead the delegation, they were hot having any success in: this effort. Despite the fact that the Russians. were having some trouble with this, delegation, it did ποὺ bother them too much. On the whole, it would be useful té have this

᾿ delegation, visit. “Ὁ dhe ca ¥ 9 q/ -9O q

The Soviet Union does not expect members of United | States delegations of this type to be convinced that Socialism is better than capitalism or that there is a utopia in the Soviet Union. These delegations are useful because it is a fact that they permit contacts and help to. break down barriers. To this extent, all trade union

delegations from the United States to the Soviet Union are " Useful and good.

National Maritime, Union, was/ very good, CURRAN held some press interviews and handled hinsel? pretty well,

A mild criticism of the midwest delegation is that it was too heterogeneous. It was composed: of representatives of too many trade unions. Since it is. impossible. for a delegation to visit every factory, it

15 preferred that delegations of this type be composed of representatives of one industhy, Thus the delegation could visit factories 6f that industry in the Soviet Union.

l The Soviet Union would also prefer "Official"

as, opposed to "Unofficial trade union delegations. from the United States even if the delegation only has the backing of one local of the union in the United States. ~

More than 10 members in any one delegation poses problems. It is preferred that the 5126. of the | delegation be limited to 6 or 7 members.

Members of trade union delegations must be told; as tactfully as possible, tot to have their wives accompany them, The reason for this is that the women, want to go shopping :and sightseeing and the trip becomes more of a

|pleasure tour than ἃ serious delegation which will disctiss trade union matters and: exchange opinions.

The All Union Council of Trade Unions of the USSR cannot send money to the United States for expenses of a trade: union delegation going from the United States: to Russia, If necessary, a contribution might be made to the | return trip expenses. Except for the May’ Day delegation from the eastern part of the United States, no problems have been encountered along this line, Return trip fares | |were paid for some of the members of this delegation.

| _ _& comparison of the serial numbers of the above, notes. against the serial numbers of notes issued to Soviet. establishments in NY and WFO (Russian Funds - BUfile '65- 28939-NY file 65-6315), produced ‘negative results;.

| In addition. to the above; identifidation tof’ the notes: contained ih the 82,000 was placed on. index cards :and inserted in the index maintained in captioned case..

The following: is: the result:

NY 65-17696

As in all previous Yvecoveries, the same pattern emerged ‘in that the Sen Francisco FR District issued by far the largest amount.

Concerning the above 376 $20.00 notes: issued ‘by the San Francisco FR District it ‘vias noted that the FRB located tn San Francisco issued notes in a ratio of approxi-« mately ‘4 to 1 over that of the FRB in Los Angeles.

As previous patterns have indicated, the notes issuéd

prior to approximetely 1955-56 were primarily San Francisco origin: After the above period of time , Los Angeles began to equal San Francisco.

Of the 376 San Francisco FRB $20.00 issue,over 125. notes fell into serialization separated. by 100 numbers or less with notes previoudy recovered,

Two notes fell into exact sequence to notes previously recovered in CP ὧν» Soviet espionage operations.

Four notes fell into sequence separated by only one note,

Fifteen notes fell into sequence separated by less than 15 notes.

The above patterns of sequence emerged from notes - issued thru the years 1950-57,

A similar situation exists in: régard to the $10.00 notes:

No pattern 6f sérPialigation was fidted in any of the ‘other 11 PR Districts.

NY 65-17696

_ On 7/32/60 CG 5824-8* furnished $13,731 which he was to forward to a high ranking member of the OP,. USA. Said money supposedly was in payment for royalties on his books. The money consisted of $13,700 in $100.00 and $50.00 notes. .

" Insertion of the above into the index rdlected the following:

NY 65-17696

Concerning the above notes, it should be noted that pencilled notations on the face of several indicated they were written oy Europeans, due to the style of weiting numerals.

As the. above chart indicates, the NY FR District issued the major portion of ‘the notes,

ἰ Insertion of the notes into the index failed to reflect any pattern of serialization in any of the 12 FR Districts.

As recipient offices are aware; the above recovery is the first instance where 2a definite pattern of serialization has not emergéd in San Francisco FR District money. Whether this 1s. due to the fact that. the index contains only ὁ, Limited total of $100.00 and $50.00 notes or whether the money forwarded to the CP official came out of another reserve maintained by the Soviets in the USSR, 1s not known.

It should be noted; however, that this is the first instance where recovered money has: not dealt directly with the CP, USA or Soviet espionage.

Comparison of the above against the sezial numbers: of notes issued to Soviet establishments in NY and WRrO produced negative results.

Recipient offices are requested to note that due to the extremely high confidential positions of CG 5824-S* and NY 694-S*, under no circumstances should any information furnished by them be set forth in peport form without specific Bureati authority;

rn

NY 65~-17969 Bureau Attention

CG §824-S#, at the instructions of Gus Hall, General Secretary, CP, USA, went abroad 7/9/60 in connection with Solo mission Number six and returned to the United States on 7/31/60.

| cesv abroad, informant contacted important functionaries of the .

CPSU in Moscow, Russia, and contacted Czechoslovakian CP members in Prague. ἣν

A&A complete analysis of the material obtained’ on this. Solo mission was made at the Bureau and it was détermined“that the information secured was outstanding. These data, on a selective basis, were disseminated with the Director's approval to, high- ranking officials and agencies of our Government: the White House, the Vice President, the Secretary of State, the Director of Central Intelligence Agency, the Attorney General and the intelligence agencies of the Armed Forces. Some of this information will no doubt be of special significance to the State Department and will assist it in shaping its national security policies. The informa- tion obtained concerning Latin-American countries 185. timely in view of the current Organization of American States meetings in Costa Rica. The current ideological dispute between the CPSU and the CP of China will not only help our Government formulate policies, but may give the Bureau an opportunity to disrupt_CP,; ‘USA, activities in this country through our Counterintelligence Program.

Memorandum for Mr. Belmont RE: SOLO 100-428091 . rs

OBSERVATIONS :

It is to be observed that subsequent to Solo missions one and three CG 5824-S* was given a personal letter from the Director and a bonus payment of $1,000. There is no question but that Solo mission Number six developed very important information and that the informant endangered his life in under- taking this. mission. CG 5824-S* is presently in Cuba on the seventh Solo mission and is expected to return to the United States shortly. He is part of a CP, USA, delegation. to the Cuban CP Congress and the Conference of Latin-American CPs Which Conference immediately follows the Congress.

Despite exhaustion from the rigors of the sixth Solo trip, which terminated 7/31/60, and an extremely heavy schedule in New York, including the briefings of Gus Hall, Eugene Dennis and William Z. Foster, CP, USA, functionaries, a three-day meeting of the National Executive Committee and a hurried and necessary trip to Toronto, Canada, to brief Tim Buck, Canadian CP leader, CG §824-S% left for Havana, Cuba, on the seventh Solo trip 12 days after he arrived in New York City from the sixth SO0lo mission.

RECOMMENDATIONS :

1. That CG 5824-S* be afforded a bonus payment in the amount of $1,000. It is believed that informant certainly merits recognition for his outstanding services in this operation above and beyond his usual remuneration.

2. That a personal letter of commendation over the Director's signature be directed to CG 5824-S%. This letter will be delivered to informant by the SAC, Chicago, for perusal and then immediately returned to the Chicago Office and retained in the safe. Chicago pointed out that because of the informant's

exhaustion from the rigors of the sixth Solo mission and his heavy schedule of activities since then, he should be urged to take a vacation and be with his son and grandchild.

ιν ὦ oo Dear Dick: “\\ \

1 thought you would be interested in the following information obtained as a result of our over-all coverage of the Comnunist Party, USA, concerning a statement made in | Havana, Cuba, by Constantine Telalov. Telaiov. was in Havana in August, 1960, as a delegate from the Communist Party of Bulgaria to the Eighth Rational Assenbiy of the Partido Socialista Popular, the Communist Party of Cuba.

Telaiov stated that Bulgaria does not want to exchange cultural or other types of delegations with the United States since the delegations from the United States could reach people in all of Bulgaria. On the other hand,

Telalov stated, there are only 59,900 Bulgarians in the oa United States and any Bulgarian delegation to the ΟΞ

United States could only reach a fraction of this number. beh

The United States State. Vepartment has Bulgaria “over a 7

barrel," Telalov commented, since the Bulgarian Government “Co _

does not know how to refuse a request of the United Statea 1:2 a

State Department for an exchange of delegations. Ὁ ἘΞ ' CS

CG 5824-S* left New York City 8/11/60 to attend, as a Communist Party, USA (CPUSA), delegate, the Eighth National Assembly of the Partido Socialista Popular (PSP), CP of Cuba, scheduled “ἢ convene in Havana, Cuba, 8/16/60. Informant returned to the United States from this seventh Solo mission on 8/25/60.

2 ptt = My memorandum 8/27/60 set forth the highlights of the γΩ seventh,Solo trip. Chicago airtel 8/30/60 contains a resume of

the report of Blas Roca, General Secretary, PSP, which took him 11 hours ¢o deliver.to the Eighth National Assembly on 8/16-17/60.

Roca described and traced the activities of the PSP from February, 1952, Τὸ the present time. Following are some of the main points Roca touched on in his” “speech:

ory tay

The-aim ὋΣ the Cuban revolution is to achieve economic independence forrCuba and to subordinate U.S. monopolies to the Cuban will for the national development and advance of the revolution.

2. The revolution is sustained by all the working people, peasants and national bourgeoisie. The counterrevolutionists cannot do very much with the internal forces but they do have the support of U.S. imperialism. Cuba has the majority support of the peoples of Latin America, Asia and the socialist world. ᾿ ή

3. The new regime of Fidel Castro has established relation with the socialist countries. "We" are free under Fidel despite the continued threat of imperialism. "We" have no written pacts because "we" are all integrated in the rebel army (Fidel's army) and because the revolutionary government is carrying through the demands of the masses--no other guarantees are necessary.

4. Blas Roca admitted to a great mistake. He said "we' did not prepare sufficiently for the armed struggle. Fidel did prepare his people. Roca commented that the measures used by the new

regime have opened the road to revolutionary change. Now "we" are searching still for more adequate forms to advance the revolution. A new Cuban state is being organized to guarantee the realization of ‘the Cuban revolution.

5. Cuba has a problem because of a lack of skilled technicians and revolutionary zeal. The socialist countries, however, will give Cuba some urgent help in this sphere. Cuba Will have to accelerate its training of Cuban technicians on a

na tonal. scale and the PSP should work on this project as an urgent ask. |

el

_ 6. The U.S. has refused Cuba arms for defense, The Soviet Union sells Cuba anything it wants to buy. U.S. economic aggression was frustrated, thanks to the solidarity of the Soviet Union and the. entiré socialist camp. ‘The Soviet Union saved our ‘people, saved Cuba: and perhaps avoided a bloody war, Roca said. Because of the help of the Soviet Union, "we" are able to hold on to the revolutionary gains.

7. One~fourth of all the sugar produced by Cuba is now purchased by the: Soviet ‘Union and Red China. This amount, Roca said, will increase. "Ife" will receive entire factories from. the Soviet Union and Czechosiovakia.

8. Sympathy for the Cuban revolution is growing in all Latin-American countries and in other countries throughout the world. Roca did not deviate from the international communist. line when he

{advocated peaceful coexistence, end overseas military bases including { the U.S.. naval base at Guantanamo Bay and reduction in armaments.

9. The PSP is a Marxist-Leninist organization and is one of the organizers of the Cuban revolution. It works with other

revolutionary organizations: the July 26 Movement and the March 13 Directorate.

-τ ὰν

a7 -

_ 40. The PSP member should be more disciplined, more organized, must be.a member in the defense. of the revolution, must master ‘the use of arms, spread,Marxism-Leninism and the. aims of .Fidel Castro and must get into other organizations and work there.

11, Revolutionary: propaganda must 6, organized. "We" need to add to the militia, to teach it how ‘to usé arms more efficiently , ΜΝ :

and how to mobilize more quickly. All Party members, the youth, mennand women should be in the militia.

OBSERVATIONS : “

e

A magazine supplement to the 8/21/60 issue of "Hoy," official publication of the PSP, contains the text of the 11-hour report given by Blas Roca. A copy of this supplement has been furnished to the Bureau by Chicago airtel 8/29/60.

For the total estinated expenses CG 5824-S* took $1,000 from CP, USA; funds and was furnished with 81, 170 by the Bureau.

In addition to the $1,000, CG 5824-S* was also . furnished with $250 of Bureau funds in New York: City during August, 1960, in connection with the seventh SOLO trip to

Cuba,

CG 5824-S* advised on September 1, 1960, that the CP, SU, did not furnish him with plane traispor tation _ fron Moscow to Prague but did furnish $110 for travel

expenses. However, he spent, for travel, this' sum and © the sum of $1,500 estimated for travel expenses, Since

he -had instructions from thé CP, SU, to return to the United States as soon as possible, it cost an extra $20 ἡ to "convince" an airline ticket agént in Europe that space was available in the middle of the tourist season.

CG 5824=S* advised. that he spent $150 for elothing which had no laundry marks or dry cleaning marks, He: left Several items of clothing in Moseqy as gifts to- the Russians,

‘ and akso purchased a gift for SEMA‘ ISNETSOV of the “2: ete International Departmont of the Contxal Committee of tha7—~—~~ CP,"SU, since it is customary to’ exchange gifts in “these —éiréunstances, CG 5824-S* does not accept gifts in return. because he travels under an assumed name and his passport does not reflect travel in Russia,

CG 5824-s* also advised that he gave $250 to his parents. .

. | Thig leaves the sum of $270. estimated for hotel roons, méals, etc.,.in Western Europe. CG 5824-S8* advised - that he spent, most of this sun but did not keep an exact accounting of it,

It ig the opinion of the Chicagag Division that CG 5824~S* probably spont more than the total of Bureau and CP, USA, funds at his disposal for the sixth and seventh SOLO trips. Forner (ἃ 5853-5 always maintained records of his expenses for him and it is most difficult to obtain a dotailed accdunting from hin, {Ὁ is known that he tries. to be accurate and certainly is pot making any profit on the exponse money he has available for these trips. Whethor or not the trips could be accomplished more écononically is ἃ dobatable point because emergency situations ariso which cannot be anticipated in advance and because of the security precautions that nust be takeh in order not to jeopardize the future of this highly successful oporation.

Tour of Area 7 of Cuba, Conducted by the Partido Socialista Popular (PSP), for Delogates. from fraternal Conminist

Parties on Sunday, August 14, 1960 - .

On Sunday, August 14, 1960, ‘all of the delegates from fraternal Communist Parties who were in. Havana to attend the 8th National Assembly of the’ PSP, the Communist Party (CP) of Cuba, were requested to report to the Hotel Comodore at 8:00 a.m, for a day long tour of Area 7 of Cuba. This area surrounds Havana,

Tho firat stop was a visit to: the PSP SP_ Headquarters of the Marymont District. The second stop was. sone 30 to 40 kilometors away and was. at the heddquarters of the July 26th Movement in. 8 small town, —

The policy of the PSP 18 to strive as much ag possible, for unity with the other forces in Cuba, The εὖ purpose of the visit to this headquarters of the July 26th. Movement was to let those at this headquarters know that unity means unity with the PSP and 811 ‘CPs. Further, that CPs look upon. all revolutionary forces as one.

It is difficult to describe the frenzied.

- Speeches, made by the Cubans. and heard on this tour. Also the vehement. shouting of slogans such -as Down with Yankees! Cuba Si; Yankees No! To the Wall! No quotas, No Masters; Down with Yankeo Imperialism, These slogens were shouted over and over again,

One is taken back by the youth of the neople who participated in the denonstrations during this tour, ‘Tt Seemed that most of the. people encountered on the tour Were in their late teens and 20's. Even childyen 8 and 9 _ years_old.were.carrying commando knives; With many ly people in the militia and carrying firearms » Cuba Cuba is. , is practically

an armed camp. PRETID ET fe SOT ALIS TH eu bh “Pope tee ‘Anior6| xanaTo, delegate to the 8th National —“KSSSiibly of the. BSP fron the CP of Costa-Hicd;~Spoke—twice

“during “this-tour: - The- purposé of this was to show that the OAS meeting thén. in progress in Costa Rica would not reflect what the people in Costa Rica think.

CLOSURE EN Y2KX09]- 99

NY

After the visit to the Headquarters of the July 26th Moverient in ἃ small town, the fraternal delegates wero taken another 40 to 50 kiloneters to a sugar mill which. had been taken over and is being run by a cooperative. Thousands of people were in the streets and were cheering the fraternal deXegates. Again there wére the ugual speeches, Tha head of the July 26th Movement at this sugar mill spoke. The mill was not operating at this time, Tt was stated that it is planned; fo extend the growing season for sugar crops, JACQUES/DUCLOS of France, who awh speaks Spanish, made an” answeri “Speech. “Thero was 8 large denonstration and the ustial cheering and. chanting

of the slogans. <_typical peasant neal" which was impossible to. eat i sorved,

From the sugar mill the fraternal delegates were taken to a PSP cadre school in _Aroa or District. 7.. The school is located on the egtate of 8 former chief of police,

A captain of the militia, who later was present at the. 8th National Assembly of the PSP; is responsible for this school where political and military training is piven, Ho. showed the delegates around the school, The Students are in their early teens, They sleep on canvas. cots and every inch of space is occupied: The verandas are utilized for classes. The studénts. are also given training in tho operation of farm equipment, The captain talked ‘of the need_for the study of Marxism-Leninism and political economy. He said that one cannot be a foreman or ἃ good. leader in anything if ‘he igs not trained ideologically 58 as well ¢ as in particulay skills,

᾿ς Next the fraternal delegates travelled in rain and mud for a couple of hours to a farm cooperative, It was learned on this trip that the names of towns and. villages in Cuba have been changed to the names of heras of the. revolution. The farm coopérative was still in District or Aren 7. Since the tour was running. late, only a few people were at the farm to greet the fraternal delegates, ‘The chairman of the cooperative apologized and asked the. delegates. to wait, Tt did not take long ᾿ to pack a, hail on the farn.

~2=

The chairman of the fara cooperative explained that this had been a large estate, He said that before the revolution, the incone for an enployee: on the farn was 450 pesos a year. This has been doubled. Women did not work on the farm before the revolution but they do now. The cooperative obtains loans from the Government..

A weeting at this farm cooperative turned into a free-for-all debate which left averyone cohfused as to ἣ | what tho aims of tho cooperative aré, RUBEN/ARZAMOV, A delegate from the CP of Bulgaria, asked’ if: the the moperative are given any incentives or 12 they do volunteer work, The Chinese delogate: also quéstions., Evon the lendership of the cooperative was not clear as to the policy of the Government in regard to.

_ building - ‘cooperatives or. collective farms. Each speaker

had a different explanation, The current ideological struggle between the CP of the. Soviet Union and the CP

of China was apparont in the undertones oF the debate.

It is noted that the CP of the Soviet Union. has criticized

.the. policy of the communes in China,

It was later noticed that there were criticisms of the National Institute for Agraridn Reform (INRA). at tho. 8th National Assembly, Obviously INRA has been _ following a leftist policy. It haa been draging its fect. on the distribution of land and credits: dn order to force peasants into state farms run by INRA.

This tour for thé fraternal delegates ended in

Havana about midnight, The purpose of this tour was to give the fraternal. delegates a taste of the Cuban spirit.

| At the completion of Solo trip six, a most successful mission, [0 5824-S%, with Bureau authority, was given a cash award in the amount of $1,000. A letter addressed to the informant dated 8/24/60 referring to the cash award was shown to CG 5824-S* and then placed in the Chicago Office's safe. The Director's letter in part read, "+ «,. it is,my sincere desire that you find time to enjoy “ἃ much needednrest and vacation with your son and new grandchild." γί “+ © Chicago letter 9/2/60 discloses that the informant was visibly. moved by the tontents of this letter when it was shown to him on, 9/1/60. "Tears came to his eyes as he exhibited emotion over the expresSion of thanks for his services." He said he wished he was capable: of doing even more. Informant will use the cash award as a gift τὸ his son who is purchasing, 8, home in California. | ees In regard to the\'Letter, CG 5824-S+ made one request. He desires that his son be afforded an opportunity to read the letter at the time the informant is visiting him in California this month.. Other than the informant's brother, NY 694-S*, his son is the only person who knows of his relationship with the FBI. CG 5824-S stated that it is often difficult to leave his family for long periods of tine without being able to explain to them the necessity for trips’ out of the country and the inability to communicate With them during thesétrips.

4 > Chicago requests Bureau authority to mail the Letter ‘addressed to the informant dated 8/24/60 to the Los Angeles Office and for, that office to permit the informant's son in the presence of the -informant, to read the letter under secure conditions. .The * letter Will then be returned to the Chicago Office.

OBSERVATIONS :

Informant, at the end of this month, is leaving on the eighth Solo: mission to Moscow, Russia, where it is expected he will remain for six or seven weeks: It is conceivable that informant wants to impress and assure his son that his trips out of the country are for the benefit of the United States.

_ RECOMMENDATION:

That attached letter to the Los Angeles Office, with a copy. to Chicago, be approved authorizing informant's son: to read the letter addressed to the informant. Necessary precautions will be. used and the letter will be returned to the Chicago Office.

Report of BLAS ROCA to the 8th National Assembly of the Partido Socialista Popular (PSP), the Conminist. Part (CP) of Cuba

ἮΣ With, ‘PENA acting as the chairman of the

: sessio > BLA ROC nera ecretary of tho PSP, began his iiain report to the 8th National Assembly of the PSP

on Tuesday, August 16, 1960, The report was, tape recorded. ROCA warned that he. would speak for 11 hours but said that he had to do it. The following is a rough summary translation of his report,

| in February, 1952, we. went underground just before the BATISTA coup. He then. heid our Congress under quite different conditions, Cuba, at that time, was | ‘under complete submission to imperialism and its tyrant,

| BATISTA. Now we are free under FIDEL despite the continued threat of imperialism, We will not go into. details of this entire period. JI will present the line to guide. our revolution in the coming period.

At the last Congress or Assembly we just adopted a Zev. xyésolutions. We urgéd the people to vote for the. Orthodox Party but when March 10 came around, they would not let. us vote and the crises developed. Our party stood alone in condemning the ‘camp of BATISTA. This was a hard and rough period. Fascist gangsterism. was rampant ‘over the country, murdering dissidents and revolutionaries with impunity. They cloged down our préss, They made it impossible for us to use any. media of communication, io. radio, etc,

Many people were confustd about the March 10 (BATISTA) coup. The veason for this was that the prior ᾿ regime was corrupt ahd not much good. But our Party's line did reach some people. We warned that the trade unions would be dominated by. BATISTA and would be fascist controlled, ‘Some people were confused because they remembered that between 1938 and 1946, we did have some united fronts with BATISTA, But during this united front, to bé exact in September, 1939, at the Congress of the Confederation of Cuban Trade Unions (CTC), wa insisted and did fet a democratic constitution in the trade union confederation and generally got denocratic liberties written. dito the Constitution for the country. ag

[00 -42F0G/— 9 ENCLOSURE

| Because of 8 years of bad, corrupt and crooked government, some people Looked to BATISTA thinking wo would have a rcépotition of the period botweon 1939 and 1946, Howover, tho PSP denounced tho BATISTA camp. We gaid that our first task ig to got rid of imperialisn; secondly to adopt sone social measures that would help the people,

This time BATISTA took over in a reactionary ora, Renenber the international situation, Keep in mind that this was the period of the Cold War. Many people in labor were confused because of the ccononic prosperity which prevailed and was ἃ result of World War IZ and tho Korean War. Profits accrued in certain classes with the people petting a little part of thon.

Like 211 coups, thore was violence and banditry. Inporialism not only countenancing it but somotines initiating

We were suppressed and oppressed and went through ἃ horrible torror. The pvople suffered from incroased taxation. The BATISTA gangsters moved into the cconony and into the trade union movement and in all of these things, they were guided by the hand of the United States, Cuba was forced to change ita diplomatic policies and braak relations with the Soviet Union, The BATISTA dictatorship joined the Cold War with anti~-Connunisn inscribed upon its banner, Other parties submitted, hoping to win tho good will of Washington,

Ag far as our Party was concerned, none of these noasures worked. The PSP said, we cannot tolerate such a Govornanent. Cow-towing to Washington and these measures of subnitting to Washington will not looson the grip of the BATISTA tyranny or dictatorship.

Most of the leaders of Cuba and the other partics took an anti-Communist position, Thoy were also guided by what they called geographic fatalisn in formulating policies. All promised subordination to tho United States, Tho BATISTA covernnent was an illegal government. In July, 1953, this illegal goveranont formally illegalised our | Party. The illegality phaso was tough for our Party. Eut ! we did not suffer any great losses, We saw this coning | | and wo wero prepared for illegality. Despite the tutclage : io£f the FBI, the BATISTA regine could not prevent the cscapo | tof οὐχ lcaders and only two wore caught.

«ὃ.

|

We continued our work and our newspaper did not niss a single issue. Our illegal apparatus did some good work despite the great difficulties, The work. was good from top to bottom but not, of course, without sacrifices, Hany communists were nurdored, A few capitulated but most were heroic, At the same tine we took advantage of every legal possibility. We used legal possibilities to propose changes in the elections laws and to make temporary agreenents with various groups opposed to the BATISTA regine, We exposed and fought the fake elections rigged by BATISTA, We kept violence in abeyance but we pointed to the use of forée, violence and even murder as used by tho tyranny of BATISTA. We raised small dematids, We would even Organize small meetings and mobilize groups of people, especially students and othor groups who were suppressed by BATISTA, In this way, we won the synpathy of tho people as the only genuine fighters for Liberty. Fron time to time, wo even found ways in the CIC,on the basis of the needs and demands of the people, toblock reaction and imperialisn,

When the workers would go on strike, as in 1955, the people would follow and be encouraged, In 1955, during the sugar cane strike, the workers got their demands in 24 hours. Even BATISTA's trade tinion leaders were conpelled to. go along, At the sane tine, the workers encouraged the people to raiso demands agdinst the Tyranny of BATISTA,

In 1957, there were.a series of political strikes.

This was the tine "when such heroic fightors 85. FRANK: PAIS

(phonetic) and RAUL PAJOL (phonotic) were murdered. In Oriento Province, the peasants were in.a state of discontent and many people in the country Were dissatisfied with tho concéssions of the BATISTA government made to the King Ranch interests. This poriod of oppression and struggle educated the people so they saw the need for decper social and economic changes, The general atrike of 1957 failed. Maybe it is better that it did,

(Parenthetically speaking, what follows refers to the only major point of debate at this 8th National Assembly. Apparently it has had repercussions outside the Communist ranks in Cuba).

it may be necessary for us to engage in some self criticism. We would have to be self critical and adnit ἃ5 ἃ great mistake that we did not prepare sufficiently for the armed struggle. FIDEL did prepare his people. FIDEL did not believe in gpontancity and organized his. guorilla band. When FIDEL landed wo wrote a letter to hin, offering to join. We also asked other organizations to join in the arned strugeple.

The armed struggle taught us that we can win, even against imperialisn, We stressed the unity of all forces, workers, peasants and working classes, Wa continued to stress this. The enemy uses all nothods to divide. Thoy resort to racial tension, anti+-Commnunism and anti-Sovietisn.

A vote for RAUL ST. MARTIN (phonetic) was used 25 ἃ no: vote against BATISTA. Thon BATISTA had to resort to illegal measures and repressions, We say that the 2in of the rovolution is to unitedly solve social problens. That there should be no stopping until the miseries of capitalism are abolished and until anti-~inperialist policies are carried out through socialisn,

We believe that the National Front stopped the junta that planned to replaco BATISTA and put thensclves. at the hoad of the peasants, students, Negroes, ate.

{The rebel arny (FIDEL's) was an important force, We

encouraged everyone to stay in thore who wanted to fight. Unity with the rebel army was the puarantee that the counter~revolution cannot got in.

Wo have no written pacts but because all arc. integrated in the rebol army and because the revolutionary govornnent is carrying through tho demands’ of the masses no other guarantees are neccssary.

After the power of the rovolutionary government was more established, we bolioved that new forns of unity were necessary to defend tho revolution and the government. Sone conrades did not understand this, Thoy lived in the past, They thought of continuing the fight like in the past.. They did not understand the necd to attract workers and peasants and sections of the national bourgeoisie undor FIDEL CASTRO. Gut we can say that all tho conscious

rovolutidnaary olenments are united, We can say the sane oxists in the CTC. Aliso that tho peasants are uniting land there is coordination between them and tho Institute

moth we

| for Agrarian Reforn (INRA). That farming cooperatives are developing and growing; that the National Hilitia is growing and training. That daily problens are being solved, But the great need in solving 411 other problons [is unity.

The socialist youth is uniting, There is unity between thé students and the young rebels, Tho integration of the Negro is proceeding. All of thése developnonts guarantee the ddvance of the revolution. But unity is. tho watchyord,

There is.a change in the quality of the Cuban

1 revolution, This came about because FIDEL trained his people to get the support of the masses, That this was not ἃ nere’ coup. That in the armed struggle FIDEL and his group were only thé initiators but the masses nust carry on. The revolution depends upon and is based upon Classes that. have been oppressed in one form or another and who are against imperialism.

At. the beginning of the tevolution, the mass movement was not yet ripe or conscious of its aims. Some things could not be done on a national scale because. of ‘unequal development. Some thought that all tasks of the revolution. could be accomplished atl at once. In some parts of the country (by way of comment, the following is 8, minimizing of provious self exiticism to some extent) | the masses could help by capturing a radio station, destroying or taking a bridge, etc.

The Cuban revolution was a strategic triumph

land began to change its quality. The conscious small groups set into motion masses of people. Up to the time of the landings the Orthodox Party had the greatest influence in Cuba. But tho revolution, as it developed, created

a crisis in this Party, The influence of this. Party was

an obstacle to the revolution, This Orthodox Party also practiced anti-Conmunisn. We should renember that even | PIDEL was at one tine in the Orthodox Party.

The July 26th HNovement is a new movemont and.

a new group, Its leaders are not afraid of Washington, Its leadership saw the need for social and econonic transformation. This is the group that landed -the expedition and it has great merit because it inspired the people, This movement gave practical leadership

to the people to mobilize a united populace in the city and in the field until the tyranny was defeated,

FIDEL is. one of the original organizers of this Jduly 26th Hovement, He had ἃ correct sease to get the

. guerrillas going and to gét the rebel army organized.

His revolutionary instinct told him who.-were the friends of the revolution - what. classes would support it. He ig not afraid of the threats of the inperialists Despite his own class origin, he morges with the masses of the peoplés..

There are fivo characteristics of the Cuban Revolution. :

1) The_xebol. any | defeated Tyranny, This was. mado possible because the arny “was Feinforced by the péople. The people destroyed the: possibility for compromise with réaction and imperialism, In-favana, this made victory possible without the firing of a shot, Not a single person. was killed in Havana, This made possible the. creation of ἃ new.armed force from the very beginning Because the arned strugrle was: the ‘principal neans, through the suiérrillas, of overthrowing the tyranny, It showed that this. type of arméd struggle, backed by the peoplo, can defeat tho. trained and better armed troops of the Yankees. This, of course, is ‘based on the fact that. such a guerrilla force, or new arny, has the support of the peasants, workers and thé fajority ‘of the people.

2). The Cuban Revolution. was not limited to a change. of personalities in 1 Government, “It smashed the old regime and gét rid of all the individuals of this regine and thoir supporters, Tho polico. apparatus was snashed and changed.

The army was either snashed or fled,

san Grae

| Congress was dissolved. The provincial apparatus Of the government was also dissolved, All those parties who helped BATISTA either fied or were outlawed. All repressive organs wore outlawed and smashed, Sone individuals were judged, imprisoned or shot. The United States Missions, particularly the armed services and the police, were sent out of the country. All tho forcign spies, particularly the Yankees, were ousted from the } country. All anti-Communist Laws were dissolved and declared nuil and void.

In the trade union movenent, those individuals who did not rob the people or were not with BATISTA, were 81} right, Others were ousted or fled. New tribunals were set up while the old judiciary powers wero limited, New institutions were established, Now security forces wore

/8et up. INRA was set up dnd the agrarian reforn was announced and is being carried through.

The National Bank regulates imports and exports lo curroncy. Only the parties which support the revolution function openly and legally, ‘Tho big estates of the Latifundia were confiscated,

| These measures opened the road to revolutionary change. Now we are searching still for moré adequate forms to advance thé revolution. A new Cuban state is being organized to guarantee the realization of tho Cuban. revolution,

ΙΪ. . 3) The roging which was submissive to tho United States imperialisn was destroyed and a new one set up. This did away with the sémi-colénial status of Cuba. ΝΟΥ classes are. in power in the city and in the country side,

This is a power which represents the alliance between workers, peasants, the petty and the national bourgeoisie.

The national bourgeoisie could be a capitalist . hourgeoisic if it is patriotic and does not subait to Yankee imperialism, extreme exploitation and excessive profits and supports the independence of Cuba,

.7.

Q Q 0 O

4) Tho Cuban revolution oxerts ἃ powerful influence in tho sphorea of United States inperialism, particularly in Latin America, The task is to defoat inporiaTion in ordor to carry through the social and ccononic refornus of the . Yevolution, The aim is to achieve economic independence for Cuba; to subordinate the United States monopolies to the Cuban will for the national development and advance of the ‘revolution, This regime, therefore, refused a United States proposal for now military missions, Without oxercising national independence, the revolution cannot be carried through, There is no conciliation with imperialism. The Cuban revolution not only dezeated tho tyranny of BATISTA

but also United States or Yankee imperialisn.

| The Cuban revolution has proat significance for _ [πὸ rest of Latin Amorica. We may bo woak militarily — Seogrepey nay be against uS; We may have to live with perialisn but all the sane we are against it. | This proves that the opportunists who preached subnission were wrong. A small country like Cuba with only six million poople undor the guns of United States 80).

porialism — at one time a virtual colony of Yankce monopoly ~ was able to dofcat North Anerican inporialisn.

| This new regino has now established relations _

| with the socialist countrics. Woe do not accept "geopraphic.

| fatalion”. There is no trembling before United States |

| Ampexia ism. if 2 can inflict. doicats on North Anerican

|, smperialiscn Why cannot other countries like Argentina, —~ razil, hilo, Columbia, ctc,

5) Our revolution took place in a new epoch; at a time when the socialist system exerts influonco on world events. It is because of the help of tho Soviot Union that we are able to hold on to tho revolutionary gains. Tho help of the socialist countries, together with the leadership of FIDEL, guarantee our victory. Venceremos!

United States imperialion is gathoring and organizing gangsters and crininals for an assault against us. Thoy now charge we are Communists (the Cuban regine). Therofore, Cuba needs to be destroyed, The people do not know the entire truth about Communism although they are beginning to learn, Eut this campaign of tho imporialists Will fail,

Θ O . O

The Cuban revolution is not a Commmist one, Put false argunonts will not succocd in the dozense of the revolution, It is not enough to say, the Cuban revolution. We also have to explain what Communism ig. After wa explain the difference betwoon Communion and tho real lcharactor of the Cuban revolution, we have to say that ours ι 15 not a Communist revolution. It is a national revolution lagainot imporialisn and against the latifundia.

The United States will not adnit that it is fighting the Cuban revolution because it is anti-inperialist and because it confiscates or intervenes in property formerly owned by the inperialists or latifundists. Tho United

States Will not admit that the revolution is for denocracy, etc,

The United Statos really uses anti-Comminisn to ,defoat the national revolution, The Cuban revolution is

not Communist, it is a revolution of national liberation and anti-latifundia,

It is because the Cuban rovolution used mass methods involving tho people that it looked like a Communist revolution, but, as FIDEL said, we will build industry.

‘Wo will deatroy the nonopolies, Woe will diversify agriculture and industry. Wo will fight for the eLinination. of United States nonopolics in sugar and in industry. We will continue with industrialigation, agricuitural and other social roforms, We will eliminate raco prejudice and discrinination. We will establish

an integrated Cuban nation. We will develop social services. Wo will develop our culture and smash the United States influence in thie field, We will develop tho

hoalth of tho people, We are for peaceful co-cxistenco with 212 nations.

| The revolution did not stand still from the very beginning.

The rebel army was on the other side.

The revolutionary powor is here. to stay, The Yankee imperialists are shouting about tho need for elections: in our country. In this way they hope to create dissolution. The people aré opposed to elections. They understand the ain.of the United States imperialists in

raising this question.

" Tha,masses, first of all, want to solve basic problems, Elections in the United States do not solve | basic problems or give expression to the necds of the masses. The Cuban people ‘have alroady voted with their blood. They are, carrying through a real revolution, That is. real democracy. The United States shouts for elections because it hopes or wants to put the lackeys of imperialism back into power, The people will vote some day but it. will not be as the Yankee imperialists want,

The forcos and friends of tha Cuban revolution | axe growing stronger, Tho pcopics revolution is sustained by all the working people, pdoasants and. national bourgeoisie (who sometimes vacillate), We therefore » must say that the working class is the fundamental claos and has mado the most sacrifices to advance the rovolution. Thoy do not push for wage increases, therefore, they holp to keop down inflation. The workers are conscious for industrinlization, They contribute cach week many hours of free labor as wall as the tax (4%) and they ovon work for reduced pay.

The workers work to carry through the agrarian reforms and through the agrarian roforns tho unity of the Workers and peasants is growing, This is the guarantee of the revolution; The workers and peasants make up the \corps or tho sentinel or guard of the revolution, The workers are the Pirgt vanmuard, The poor and niddlc (peasants and apricultural workers have received the benofits

ΙΟΥ the agrarian reforng,

_ Tho urban bourgeoisie expected nore from the revolution. They expected that the revolution would bo in line with United States expectations. Yet while this urban bourgeoisie vacillates, it is joining with the Workers, especially is this true of the smaller bourgeoisie, in anti-inperialist unity.

; The counter revolutionists cannot do very nuch jwith the internal forces, Eut they do have the support of United Statos imperialism, We can Say that Cuba has {tho support of tho majority of tho peoples of Latin America, ΟἽ Asia and of the socialist world. Cube has become an lexampie for all of Latin Anerica, Latin Anerican countrics want tho Cuban way out of their present, terrible economic situation. We can therefore say that the soliderity of the peoples is gaining and growing south of the Rio Grande, In this sympathy, we must include our friends in Puerto __ Rico, Jamaica, and other colonies of United States imporialisn. | In Noxico, too, thore is a growing peoples moyement for Cuba, In Argentina, Brazil, as well as Uruguay, there is a growing | sympathy for the Cuban revolution. In all of Latin America, , Ecuador, Eolivia and other countries, the movenents for the , Support of Cuba keop growing. We can say that thoir governnents do not speak for the people, All the countries in the Western Honisphere suffer from United States inperialist oppression. Even Canada, as a junior partner, 'ig really dominated by United States capital.

The Cuban revolution has forcign cnenics but the United States is the chief adversary, the greatest and most dangerous of the imperialist powers. Our most important task is tho fight for panceful co-cxistence, against tho colonialists and for poace. Inperialist aggression is possible. The United States is pushing for it. But Cuban independence is a contribution toward peace, At tho sane tine the Cuiian strugglo for indepondence weakens imperialism and makes peaceful co-existence rodifzable.

Tho strengthoning of the socialist world weakons imperi2ilisn, The Soviet Union will bo the first to reach Communism, Xt is a powerful country and is leading in the £ficlds of science and culture. It is perfecting its democracy. It pursues a policy of peace and strengthens | the camp of socialiom. The same can bo said of China Lundex the leadership of the CP of China and Conrado WAO,

China has nade groat strides during the last |10 yoars, China is a big factor in world affairs. China ) illustrates what socialism can do ta transform a backward country. Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Poland, Eungary, Rumanian and other countrios of the socialist canp are naking big strides forward. The Soviet Union, China and tho rest of the socialist world aro only one third of the world, but will soon produce one half of tho world

production,

Inporialism is loosing its grip in many-.continents, particularly in Asia and Africa. If we study United States forcign ‘policy in detail τὸ will note that it is aggressive and war like, ‘The hundreds of American bases in difforent. countries are not for the defense of the United States ‘but for offensive action, United States. imperialism occupies Panama and naintains powerful military bases there. It _ does. the same in Puerto. Rico and ig despoiling the country.

| __ Tho United States xvetention of Guantanamo Base \ is harmful to Cuba, The United States pays less in ront for this base than one would pay for office rent in New York City, Perhaps this base was orice needed for the protection of the Panama Canal but aow Guantanamo is aimed at Cuba and other South American countries, World peace demands. an end to United States based in Latin Anerica, withdrawal from these -bases and from the. bases in the rest of the world.

_ Concerning the internationdl situation, the socialist. countries are tho biggest factor for poace, Cuba survived despite. the sabotage of the United States but only because it was helped by the socialist countrics, Cuba is no longer a sorvant of the Unitod States in the

| United Nations, Cuba will. follow 2 policy of peaceful co~oxisténce, equal rélations with all states and non- intervention in other countrics,

Cuba is also.against economic aggression, When .the United States fights against the independence of our nation, it endangers peace. We must Light for peace, for an end to aggression, for disarmament, for more solidarity _ with countrios that fight for independence such as Guatemala, Honduras, the West Indies, Puerto Rico, the Congo, etc,,

We aro gure that.we would defeat North American. inperialists. if they invade. our country, 411 the people in the world would help us fight; This would be a contribution to world -peace.

Qur revolution is. developing at an accelerated fpace, We have nationalized the electric. company, the telephone company and other big, imperialist, monopoly iinterests. ᾿ ᾿

In independent. Cuba, there is no room for those who fail to declare for the revolution. These are traitors who serve United States imperialism. Most often they are guided by class attitudes. They prefor inperialisn to their fatherland but there is no internal force that. can stop the revolution in Cuba,

The counter revolutionaries are now trying to Jutilize the Catholic Church. United States is guiding the church, Witness the speech of Cardinal SPELLMAN in Munich and the most vicious attack against Cuba.

The KENNEDY candidacy in the United States is effort to link up with the Catholic. :Church against the revolution. The United States, through FRANCO and Spain, is using Spanish priests in our country. They want to convert the churches into centers of counter revolution, They want to use Catholic schools and Catholic youth as centers against the rovolution. The Catholics, in the majority, are for the revolution. Some others are agents of United Statea inperialisn. Wo are appealing to tho loyal Catholics to work tézether and life has shown that this is possible in our country.

The sessions of August. 16, 1960 concluded at this time. BLAS ROCA continued ba oport at the session of August 17, 1960 with SEVERO AGUIRRE as the chairman,

ROCA continues.

The nationalization of power utilities, the ‘telephone company, and o11 refineries is a big blow to the United States imperialists but at the same time a guarantee for our acononic independence, The electric power company was a bit. monopoly and an obstacle to economic development; ‘Thoy would drain riches from Cuba and send them to the United States,

Nationalization makes it possible for us to give cheaper clectricity, cut costs, increase industrialization and use the profits for the growth of the Cuban company.

Tho tolephone was also an exclusive monopoly. We are improving and expanding service and selling this service

for less and the profits go to Cuba. We intervened for a

time, in the oil refinery industry but these refineries continued to be tho property of the United States monopolies. Now these refineries are the property of the stata,

The sugar tionopolies controlled 37% of tho produc-— tion, employing 116,000 workers. Thoy used to make at Yeast. 30 million dollars in net profit each year, It went to the United States nonopolies. The currency went to the United States, Now 50% of the sugar production is in the hands of the state. One half of the sugar production or 52% is nov milled by cooperatives,

The Gth of August will go down in history as a great ‘day for Cuba. This was the day .of nationalization, This was the day when we gavo our answer to United States econonic aggression. This: was the day when we took over 600 million doliars in proporty., There are other figures in regard to nines, metal sueiting, civil aviation, tobacco, radio, tolovision; as well as. magazines. Most of the % [transportation is now in the hands of the state and so is most of the commorce.

Now. we need géod planning for distribution. _ Industrial and general plans are in the making to advance | our general economy. Planning will accelorate all our. national economy. Partial plans are already boing carricd through. In. 1960. and in 1961, some new factories will opén up and produce goods or articles that were formerly imported from abroad; just to cite a few - olectric bilbs, sewing machines,. ete, Soon we are going, to produce iron and

steel and textiles and incréasa, our shoe production,

We.do have a problem because of a lack of skilled technicians. and revolutionary zeal, The socialist | countries will give. us some urgent help in this sphere. But we will have to accelerate nationally to train Cuban. technicians. The young should start, Tho PSP should work on this ag dan.

l urgent task.

We refute. the arguneht that private enterprise and liberty go togsther, We can show the contrast between exploitation | by the rionopolics, the former poverty of the

peasants, their position in society that wont hand in hand With totalitarianism, So we: ‘had private énterprise and totalitarianism. We can show a good contrast in our favor.

Private enterprise still plays a roie in our econony. We should oncourage it because this part of the economy is needed to add to tho volume of our production. Since commerce and the banks are controlled, vrivate enterprise can continue and help us to develop the caconony of the nation. We should remember that while there should be control on private economy, thero is need for a profit. However, profits should be limited, There are already laws, chiefly of taxation, which control or linit the profits. We need more controls go that if there is excessive profit it could go to the government to be used for the expansion of the national cconomy and for cultural development.

Z8one mistakes were made in the intervening of some establishments. Sone intervention may bo necessary, for example, when the workers are oppressed or the management is reactionary or sabotages, But some of the small enter- prises should bo left alone and it might havo beon better 4” some had. heen left alone in the past without intervention.

Intervention in the big plants is different. ‘Such intervention generally leads to nationalization and ‘ig necessary. αὶ just to intervene and to irritate tho national bourgeoisie is no good, Thoy should bo with the revolution. Intervention should bo used only whore there is no other way or when thoco who run certain plants aro impeding the dovelopmenat of tho econony.

Some trado unions asked for intervention during the carly days of our revolution. Now I think that too many are asking tha government to intervene - even in national proporty. Some unions are asking for a division of the profits -- ἃ sharing of the profits, That would not help the cconony. What we nead instead are councils of workers so that thoy can participate in administration. Ve aiso need trade unions to watch the carrying out of the contracts. Eut we must also try to avoid conflicts that would injure the revolution,

The property expropriated from the inporfalists | needs to be watched and improved. The trado unions have a role of discipline to play and have a conscious responsibility. They should fight arainot waste of materials, for econony in general and against absentccisn,

Revolutionaries, particularly our people, have a great responsibility for the development of the econony.. Party leaders must now be more than propagandists. They should know how to drive tractors, run machinery, be administrators, etc.

Cuba is broadening its economic and foreign relations, United States monopoly has been broken. The relations with the socialist countries prevented the suppression of Cuba, saved Οὐχ independence, strengthened Cuba and saved it economically and politically,

We also defeated the economic aggression of the United States, Without the help of the Sovist Union, Cuba would have been in ἃ desperate situation, The oil and machinery we received and tho buying of sugayr after the quota was cut are examples of this. One and one half million tons of sugar is the minimum figure for that bought by the Soviet Union and China, One fourth of all pugar produced by Cuba is now purchased by these two. countries and this will increase,

Sugar prices in tho United States are going up. This will raise the price on the world market and will give Cuba an advantage, We gave the United States four million dollars more for the oil we bought than we paid when we bought oil from others. This is a bigger saving than the sugar quota bonus which the United States paid us for the ,benefit of its own growers rather than to do us a favor. Wo are. gotting rice from China at ἀφ cheaper per (unit not known), We will save millions of dollars by buying rice fron China,

We are going to get trucks, tractors and other items much. cheaper, We will also sell our goods and diversify our econony, We wili receive entire factorics |2xon the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia, We are being. given credit, The interest rate is only 24%. This. will gave us millions. Who ever gave Cuba such terms before? We are also able to trade or bartor in goods which we need or have a surplus of. The United Statos interest

}xates were between 64% and 7% in the past, Actually

these were not loans, they wore really mortgages held by

the United States. What did they help us build? A few roads for tourists. They humiliated us and compelicd us to pass Laws to protect their investments. The holp and credits we get from the Soviet Union and China are different,

The plants will be ours. The profits will bo ours, too. We will prodice what we need with our own technicians.

Cuba's relations. with the socialist countries will hurt no one but will help Cuba; The.traitors who say differently are lying.

. At this point there was 8 big yell from the hall, Lot them go! Let them go!

ROCA continued; | We need to develop our relations with China, | We need slogans against CHIANG KAI-SHEK, | We need. to develop our relations .with East Germany.

‘The United: States is trying all mannors of attack; It is using its own people aiid. immigrant bandits, When

Wail! Here thore was more shouting of the pbrase, To The 411:

ROCA continued:

We must bo in all. institutions and work in then.

_ But we must also avoid antagonizing people. We should give private industry a chance, even if in a limited way. We necd a now corps of diplomats, They must come from the people, the workers and revolutionaries. We neod more χὰ people in thése institutions. Tho development and defense of the revolution requires. now methods of justice (Cuba has no legal code at the present tine),

Nore solidarity 1s needed with Latin American countries, the socialist. countries and 211 countries that are for poace, We need managers, technicians, administrators, etc, We have to raise our ability to train people, We j mst Ling people that have ability and a revolutionary spirit. We need the organization of the Party, the July 26th movement, the Negro, youth, women, intellectuals, ete.

At this point thero was a chanting of Unidad, Unidad, Unidad, for five minutes,

The fundamental facts of the revolution require 2 stronger workers and peasants unity. The revolution requires that we fight for peace, against nuclear war, against nuclear testa, etc.

The PSP member should be riore disciplined, more | organized, A ῬΩ͂Ρ member must be number one in the defense | ΟΣ the revolution no matter what post he or she occupies, | PSP membors nust master the use of arns, The PSP membor- ship must spread Marxism-Léninism and the aims of FIDEL .

ANIBAL ScALANTE wilt doal with the program and will also ana @ present epoch and classes in this

revolution. He will deal with the role of institutions. This. program will bo a guide that should enable us to lead the masses, This program gives a Marxist-Leninist analysis of the present and the future tasks.

We will be more explicit on the organization of the Party since we are going to adopt a new constitution,

new rules and new forms,

At this point there was a break after which ROCA continued:

. We must guard that, the people do not disperse their forces. They must look to their leaders but also must influence their leaders: We must not underestimate the masses. No matter what tho situation the revolution is assured and will be carried out if we. are based on the Masses, -

Opportunists and adventurers will try to take advantage of mass ferment. Only a revolutionary ideology and a revolutionary program guarantees the revolutionary

organization. All menbers nust be true to the program, The

PSP is a Marxist-Leninist organization, It ig one of the organizers of the Cuban revolution, But we are not the only force, There is the July 26th movement, FIDEL took the armed lead with the July 26th movement and therefore plays the main role. The March 13 Directorate plays a role and FIDEL is the leader of 211 the forces,

The Cuban revolution has an advantage. We are not

(divided. We have unity, That is why we stross the strengthening

of relations with other groups. Consider the opinions of others in this unity. We think thore can be more coordination between all the groups and it is needed,

At this point thera wad a prolonged shouting of the: phrase, Unidad Sola!

Our Party committees gust be more than propagandists. They -are participating in the revolution; They must work and keep in mind the actual tasks. The leaders. must avoid sectarian errors, Tho Party line is cooperation for all for the revolution. This. moans confidence with other péople, This means consiltation at all levols whether in administration or working groups go all can stop the counter revolution,
